I love the new fight song, the introduction with the blackout stadium coming out to a moonlight entrance and the howls after 1st downs. Wait I haven’t seen any of this besides the Uni designs. You wanna throw me a quick link? 3 minutes ago, skinfan2k said: People say the Redskins name was powerful yet we didn't do anything with it outside of the helmet. We didn't do anything to honor NAs on the field besides the BS things before the game. I think the next name we need to fully embrace and use it for introductions, first downs and anything else. Yea it will be fun. I told the fiancé (Huge tech fan, games are nothing like Skins games) just about the howl thing and she cracked a little smile but tried to keep it contained. She’s been howling all weekend lol she’s a dork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Washington Redfins. New logo is a Shark Fin profile, replacing the N.A. profile. Everything else remains the same, colors/uniforms. HTTR survivies. No other sports team uses this name (easing name protection). So simple. So easy. Blood in the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is zero reason to, there is zero pressure to, and a small percentage of fans being "tired" of the topic is number 3,039,200 on the list of "Good reasons for the Redskins to change the team name". Every trick in the book was tried, and all of it failed, as it should have. The patent protection removal idea failed, the "Redskins = bloody scalp of native Americans" story/myth failed, the polls showed 90% of NAs really don't give a ****, that more NAs associate the word "pride" with the word "Redskin" than any other word, and the Supreme Court basically said "**** you" to anyone who wants to try and keep the Skins from full patent protection, Hell, even the NA activists who were leading the charge said the fight was over. AOC and Mike-stinkin-Florio chiming in does not change any of that. Nor do any of the protests going on now...the level of disingenuousness needed to link the two issues is mindnumbing. I get that those who thought "Redskins is the equivalent of the n-word' was a valid argument to make might see this as an opportunity to exploit, but doing so won't gain any traction and may actually backfire. It's gonna be the Washington Redskins for the rest of all our lifetimes. Suck it up. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Washington announced July 3 it would review its name, the feeling was it would be a quicker process.

No one ever confuses the giants football and the giants in baseball. However the giants have rebranded using NY more and always refer to the "NEWWW YORK football" giants.

The wolf howl should only be after first downs. The marching band should still be there and used after touchdowns as it has always been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
